I was delighted to attend the #TCESxCDTs conference this week, in which I had the pleasure of presenting my research on developing a synthetic bone marrow niche for haematopoietic stem cell maintenance #phd @CDTLifETIME

(3/3) If successful, this niche will revolutionise our understanding of the BM niche and associated diseases, as well as satisfying the demand for HSCs for research and clinical uses #TCESxCDTs @theglasgowcemi

(2/3) HSCs quickly lose their stemness when removed from the BM niche, limiting HSC research. My project, in collaboration with @MancBIOGEL, aims to develop an artificial BM niche that can grow HSCs in the lab #TCESxCDTs
